Here are some pics that came out of some Indy show discussions with some major porkers (you know who you are...). Enjoy.

The original ZT Jerry took to Blade when the ZT’s were introduced, and a ZT-grind with the old (and better IMHO) tan finish. These are mine. No, not for sale, trade, etc. etc.

The SHBM spine grinds came up, so here are the different SHBM grinds. (T-B) 1 of 6, 1 of 300, normal “production”

This was a score at one of the Indy show. IIRC, I paid somewhere between $300 and $400 total for all 3 with Mountain Mike sheaths. Original Basic 6 (middle) with Ratweiler (top) and ETS SJTAC (bottom). Again, not goin anywhere so please don’t…

These are 3 of the 5 Mean Street prototypes for a version that never made it to market. These were considered to be released when the “straight handled” blade (BM, SH, BA, MS) were discontinued, and the Ergo line came out. There were no Mean Streets put out when the Ergos were out. This is a crappy (old) pic. I’ll try to get some pics of each as there are some variations between the colours. I really had to work to round these up. All 3 were offered at Blade in '05 I think. I got one, Porkducci got one, and Dark Nemesis for the third. Gettin INFI out of those guys was impossible then...LOL (WHERE THE HECK IS NEMESIS???) Again, not goin anywhere so please don’t…

Those Assault Shakers are sick!! :eek: :eek: :cool:



Love to see some of those in person :D
 
awesome mike! too bad you got ripped off on those 3 from the indy show a couple years ago :eek:

I gotta say the ratweiler is a great lookin blade.

Are you gonna bring any show and tell toys to the next 1500?:cool:
 
Dang that is some purty INFI. Love the Mean Streets - great pics ! ;)
 
Awwww, Hammy!

The ZT is my favorite. I haven't found any like yours, though. Just beautiful. :cool:
 
Azshaman, there were two (at least) at Knob Creek several years ago. I got one, and the other (I know of) was bought (it turned out) by a gun dealer from Indy. I've tried to get that pup from him, to no avail...

Funnier yet, the Bully, yes, Porkerson himself, is the one that pointed that SJ out to me when it was sitting on the table.

Drbarnes, never know man, never know... :cool:
 
those mean st protos are so fricken cool!!!! Come on Jerry, I mean Mike :p get us some more pics of the shbm's :thumbup:

Ps, anyone ever tell ya your a sick man? And $300-4 for those 3, I think I just puked in my mouth a little.
 
I remember doing the wrap on that dc assault shaker.... To this day it remains the sharpest busse I've ever handled, even compared to the cabs. I didn't take a mic reading on the edge, but it felt very, very close to being a true zero edge.

It was a fun random rendition on the mean street theme. I remember it going up, just not exactly when....
 
Those are quite the knives!!! Enough even to make biggest Hogs squeal................
 
Nice pics, Uncle Hammie. I had not realized just how big of a Sasquatch Hog you are.

Yeh, IIRC, I had it, sold or traded it to Voracious (who is back by the way :thumbup: ), who got it and was almost immediately bitten, then I later ended up getting it back to the Hammy Hotel.

The SHBM grind pic was shamelessly plagerized, and I cannot remember who to give props to....

I only have one of the 1 of 6's.
 
And here is my first Grail, along with a DWMS w/an original dogtag, and a "factory" bead blast Police Recruit.
